Custom fender bolts

I broke one of the fender bolts trying to install the hood struts, so I went out and got myself some new fender bolts. They can come in a variety of colors but I decided to go with black to better match the engine bay.

Easy peasy lemon squeezy

I think that is the Grimmspeed hood strut, how did you break the fender bolts putting this in?

You'd think for a new car you wouldn't have to put WD40 on them... That sucks, but the new ones look good!
